Prototype Quinjet (Captain Marvel)
Well, I think that's it's name, as I've yet to see the film. Anywho, about a month or so ago, I was able to get my hands on the Captain Marvel set which is a great little set. While I love the quinjet from the set, I thought it could be bigger. So I set to making an upscaled version, roughly the size of the Avengers quinjet in sets. So, here it is, twice the size, twice the firepower and all that jazz. And to top it off, I think i'm the only person to have done this, so that's pretty awesome!
The front slides open, and seats one minifig, with more room in the middle for three minifigs. It's still got the flickfire missiles under the wings, cos I thought that was a pretty nice thing, plus I wanted to kinda keep the set aesthetic to it, so it still has some play features. Cos of the scaling up, I added two more missiles on each side, which works pretty well. I also added a gun turret type thing to the nose. Don't think it has one in the film, but I quite like the look of it. I also gave it wheels, just so it can roll around, and have more height to it. Speaking of measurements, it is now:
14 studs tall (17 at the tips of the rear thruster wings)
33 studs long from nose to rear
and a wingspan of 44 studs from wing tip to wing tip
So, that's the upscaled quinjet. Might show more pics of the inside plus the workings of the cockpit and roof. So, as always lemme know what you think :D
